ouch! that's a lot of frames! I'd recommend you put each frame into a movieclip in the library and instead of going to different frames, load the different clips. the advantage is that you can sort your stuff into folders in the library, thus making it easier to find what you need to change.

instead of:

gotoAndStop(348);

you would use:

this.attachMovie("clip348", "clip_mc", 1);

oh and if you're new to this, i should mention that you need to give the clips linkage identifiers in the library.
